Not sure where to put this, it's not baskebatll related obviously, but how are you guys doing? I'm hearing the Midwest has been swept by tornadoes and storms, hope you all are healthy and safe.

Yeah, I want to ask that as well. I tried to find a thread on this in the Market Square but came up empty. When I saw it in the news I jumped out of my bed. I heard that Kokomo has been hit by the storm and I do recall that some posters here are from that area.

Tonight, all flags must burn, in place of steeples.
Autonomy must return into the hands of the people.

Yeah, as much as Josh Smith should be avoiding taking threes... he doesn't have many better options when Monroe and especially Drummond are clogging the lane. The problem is the makeup of the roster, and not the individual players.

The Pistons need a trade for a legit shooter in the worst way. Personally, I like Greg Monroe's game more than I do Drummond's, but I think the writing's on the wall... I suspect Greg will get moved before the deadline this year.

I think moving either guy is insanity. They combine for 32 points and 21 rebounds per game. Unless you're offering me Bradley beal or Klay Thompson, I'm not even thinking of moving one of them for a shooter.

It wasn't about being the team everyone loved, it was about beating the teams everyone else loved.

I'd agree if Monroe wasn't sitting on a likely $60M payday this summer. Is there any way the Pistons match a contract offer like that?

The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!)

I think if the Blazers face a Memphis or San Antonio in the first round they will get blitzed due to their experience. If they face a GSW or Clippers, they might make it a series. Teams that defend the paint well will really hurt the Blazers.

Yeah, when I saw that existed I had to add it. I wish I'd discovered it years ago.

We wish you had too.
